1 Introduction 1.1 Reason for the evaluation The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and the resulting tsunami prompted exceptional expressions of human solidarity, and provoked an unprecedented level of international involvement in the re-building and recovery of affected coastal areas of many countries. Over 225,000 lives had been lost in the space of a few hours. This single event had a sudden and dramatic impact on the vastly different ground realities in all the affected countries in the region. It is imperative to recognise the remarkable demonstration of solidarity shown in the aftermath of the tsunami. Although the process is far from complete, when we consider the enormous amount of damage done in a short space of time, the re-building of communities in the space of four years (a process that normally takes decades) has nevertheless been of historic proportions, due largely to the unprecedented level of support provided by private individuals, the international humanitarian community, the private sector and many others. The aim of all the actors who have been involved with the tsunami aid effort has been to compensate the survivors, mitigate future risks, and to pursue reconstruction over and above what existed before (a position agreed at the donor conference in early 2005). According to the Tsunami Evaluation Coalition, an estimated US$ 13 billion were donated from private and government sources in the space of a few months for the people and areas affected by the tsunami. At the time of the evaluation many reconstruction programmes were still ongoing. In Indonesia alone, for example, according to BRR, US$ 6.7 billion of the roughly US$ 7.2 billion in pledges made by donors has been spent 1 . Four years on, we appraise the extent to which response efforts have managed to successfully bridge the transition from relief to reha- 1 IRIN, 29 December 2008 17
